Enhanced strength and durability of long fiber type carbon fiber reinforced plastic rods over titanium alloy rods for spinal fixation

Background: Carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) has been used in many medical devices, including rods for posterior spinal fixation devices, owing to its superior radiolucency and durability compared with titanium alloys. However, the strength of the existing short fiber type CFRP does not surpas...
